Oh, in a little while from now, if [G#m] I'm not feeling any less sour,
I [Bm] promise myself to treat [G#] myself and visit the nearby tower.
[F#m] I'm climbing to the top, [F#] will throw myself off,
[E] in an effort to make clear to whoever what it's like when you're shattered,
[G#m] left standing in the lurch [G#] at a church where [C#] people were [F#m] saying,
[E] we may as well go home, [G#m] as I did [C#] on my own, [F#m] alone [F#] again.

[G#m] left standing in the lurch [G#] at a church where [C#] people were [F#m] saying,
my God, that's tough, she stood him up, [F#] no point in us remaining,
[E] we may as well go home, [G#m] as I did [C#] on my own, [F#m] alone [F#] again.
[E] Naturally, _ _ to think that only yesterday, [G#m] I was cheerful, bright and gay,
[Bm] looking forward to what we wouldn't do, [G#] the role I was about to play,
[F#m] but as if to knock me down, _ [F#] reality came around,
[E] and without so much as a mere touch, cut me into [D#] little pieces,
[G#m] leaving me to doubt, talk about God in [C#] His mercy,
[F#m] but if He really does exist, [F#] why did He desert me?
[E] In my hour of need, [G#m] I truly am indeed [F#m] alone [F#] again.
[E] Naturally, _ _ [G] it seems to me that there are more [D] hearts broken in the world,
that can't [F#] be mended, [D#m] left [G] unattended,

[F#m] All alone [F#] again, [E] naturally, _ _ now looking back over the years,
[G#m] and whatever else that appears, [Bm] I remember I cried when my father died,
[G#] never wishing to hide [C#] the tears, [F#m] and at 65 years old,
[F#] my mother, God rest her soul, [E] couldn't understand why the only man
[C#m] she had ever loved had [D#] been taken, [G#m] leaving her to start
with a heart so [C#] badly broken, [F#m] despite encouragement from me,
[F#] no words were ever spoken, [E] and when she passed away,
[G#m] I cried and cried [C#] all day, [F#m] alone again, [F#] _ [G#m] naturally, _ _
[F#m] alone again, [F#] _ naturally.
